Bittersweet…
My time at SI is coming to a close soon. Thanksgiving weekend was the last big break before the final stretch leading to graduation. As the end gets closer, I have really mixed emotions. Part of me is really excited to re-enter the work force in a new field, while the other part of me is sad to be leaving the SI community. And let’s face it, I’m a little scared because I am entering a new field (but my excitement trumps the fear!). And then I realize that I really won’t be leaving SI because it is now my turn to take an active leadership role in the SI Alumni community. During my time at SI, I interacted with many alumni in the Student-Alumni Database and students I met who graduated during my time at SI. In my experience, the alumni are an invaluable resource and I look forward to giving back, too. Just this week a fellow student emailed me about one of my internships. I was not only able to give her contact names and information, but to send an introduction email on her behalf….my first steps in giving back!
